Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation (the “Company”) is furnishing this Current Report on Form 8-K to announce that its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Gary C. Evans, is participating in Bank of Montreal’s (BMO) Energy Forum on Tuesday, January 13, 2015, in Boston Massachusetts.

In connection with Mr. Evans’ participation in the Energy Forum, the Company has updated its Investor Presentation slide deck, available on the Company’s website (www.magnumhunterresources.com) under “Investors — Presentations / Conference Calls — Corporate Presentation.”  The Company’s updated Investor Presentation includes information regarding certain estimated operational and estimated financial results of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014, including end of year production results, capital expenditures, revenues and adjusted EBITDAX.

The Company’s Investor Presentation contains definitions and reconciliations of all non-generally accepted accounting principal (“non-GAAP”) financial measures included therein. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate evaluation of the Company’s business on a “normalized” or recurring basis and without giving effect to certain non-cash expenses and other items, thereby providing management, investors and analysts with comparative information for evaluating the Company in relation to other oil and gas companies providing corresponding non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, measures for financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the reconciliations to the closest corresponding GAAP measure should be reviewed carefully.

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall any of such information be deemed incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing.
